Totally no Tube (TNT) Uniportal Video-assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS) VS Traditional Uniportal VATS for Mediastinal Tumor: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating TNT uniportal VATS mediastinal tumor resection and Traditional uniportal VATS mediastinal tumor resection for Mediastinal Tumor. Completed, enrolled 130 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
TNT surgery is a new area of exploration and evolution in thoracic minimal invasive surgery. TNT Uniportal Video-assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS) has become popular during mediastinal tumors resection. However, there has been little randomized controlled trials into the associated feasibility and advantage. The aim of our RCT was to evaluate the feasibility and advantage of TNT Uniportal VATS for mediastinal tumors resection and its significance in Fast Track Surgery (FTS). This is a single-center prospective randomized controlled trial. 98 patients aged between 18 and 75 years with clinically mediastinal tumors were randomly assigned to two groups, 50 patients received TNT uniportal VATS mediastinal tumor resection (TNT group) and 48 patients underwent traditional uniportal VATS mediastinal tumor resection (control group), the short-term perioperative outcomes would be reported here.
